We have Isaac Newton here wondering ...

Quote:

Whether the word ομοουσιος ever was in any Creed before the Nicene; or any Creed was produced by any one Bishop at the Council of Nice for authorizing the use of that word.

The answer to his question is still NO?

The word homoousios was used in the Synods of Antioch, but it was condemned for being "sabellianist". The objectors to Nicene made use of that, but they still lost out.
